Chapter 1586 - 1560: Divine City’s Little Demon King

As the core city of the Dwarf Star, the Divine City is extremely bustling, surpassing even the international metropolises of New York, Qingyun City, Aotian City, London, as well as Wentian City and Magic City of the Xuanming Country before the apocalypse on Earth.

Here are skyscrapers hundreds to thousands of meters tall, various flying vehicles serve as means of transportation in the sky, and people weaving through the air.

There are different levels in the sky traffic, with various flying devices following distinct air route domains.

The ground streets are equally vibrant, lined with various shops, and diverse races fill the streets, seemingly a gathering place of planetary races, with all sorts of strange-shaped demon beasts roaming idly with their masters.

A gigantic red-haired monster races along the street, prompting pedestrians to step aside.

"Move aside, move aside, are you courting death!"

A whip dozens of meters long lashes out in front, causing people on the roadside to dodge, and those who fail to avoid in time are swept up by the whip and thrown into the air.

Yang Xiao and Xiao Qingliu are standing in front of a shop selecting some small toys.

A strong whirlwind roars towards them, striking overhead.

Yang Xiao reaches back and grabs the long whip, pulling forcefully.

With a "whoosh," the owner riding on the red-haired monster, holding the long whip, is pulled down by Yang Xiao.

The red-haired monster couldn't stop its charge, rushing forward with dozens of pedestrians unable to evade.

Xiao Qingliu lets out a tender shout, waving her hand, as a streak of deadly chill breaks through the air, enveloping the red-haired monster.

With a "crack," the red-haired monster is instantly frozen into an ice sculpture, front legs in the air, red hair floating, mouth agape.

The owner, holding the long whip, is pulled by Yang Xiao and flipped in mid-air, landing in the middle of the street.

Looking back, he finds his mount frozen into an ice sculpture by Xiao Qingliu, and instantly flies into a rage.

"How dare you, you actually dared to kill my mount, you'll pay with your lives."

The youth speaks, pulling out a blood-colored longsword from a space ring and slashing fiercely at Yang Xiao, a ten-meter killing aura rends the void, extremely fierce.

Yang Xiao is startled, as you are so unreasonable, I won't waste words with you, directly punching over.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, the youth's body shudders, the longsword flying out of his hand, and his body is blasted back dozens of meters, crashing down on the street.

The onlookers cheer.

The youth climbs up from the ground, humiliated and angry, flicking his hand, sending a dozen green egg-sized spheres flying towards Yang Xiao.

Yang Xiao is about to counterattack when these spheres suddenly fly into the air, all exploding with a "boom."

A cloud of black smoke quickly spreads, sinking fast.

Xiao Qingliu sees this and immediately says:

"Yang Xiao, hold your breath, leave quickly, this is a toxic mist, inhaling even a little is deadly."

Yang Xiao and Xiao Qingliu promptly activate a defense light screen over their heads, then with instantaneous movement, fly out of the space covered by the toxic mist.

Although Yang Xiao and Xiao Qingliu successfully evade the toxic mist, dozens of people on the street fail to escape in time, engulfed by the mist, collapsing immediately, their bodies convulsing briefly before turning into pools of blood.

Yang Xiao looks on, shocked inwardly, what a ruthless guy.

Turning his head to look at the youth, who clutches two green spheres in his hands, sneering:

"You dare offend me, you will die, be buried with my mount!"

Yang Xiao, furious beyond measure, disregards that this is a young master of the Divine City, flashes forward, person and fist, charging directly.

The youth, accustomed to rampant behavior in the Divine City, never fearing anyone as others yield to him.

Little did he expect to encounter a fearless Yang Xiao today, showing him no face.

Yang Xiao punches out, violent killing aura instantly sweeping in.

The youth suddenly feels a breath of death, a chill enveloping his body.

"Boom!"

The youth screams miserably, body blasted over a hundred meters away by Yang Xiao, landing in a bloody mess with no breath left.

An elderly man on the street quietly advises Yang Xiao:

"Young master, you're in trouble, that's Lei Tianmo's grandson, you killed him, leave quickly before the guards arrive."

Yang Xiao and Xiao Qingliu are both startled, exchanging glances, and Xiao Qingliu pulls Yang Xiao swiftly into the crowd.

Lei Tianmo's grandson had long imposed tyranny in the Divine City, stirring public resentment. Now, with Yang Xiao having killed him, the people feel relieved, and no one immediately reports to the Divine City's guards, leaving him exposed on the street.

It wasn't until half an hour later when a patrol of guards passed by and discovered his body.

The guards, seeing the frozen red-haired monster mount in the middle of the street that Xiao Qingliu had left, recognize it as belonging to Lei Tianmo's grandson, in shock.

The guards launch a city-wide manhunt for the culprit who killed Lei Tianmo's grandson, but witnesses from the scene had long scattered, leaving no trace for witnesses, and shopkeepers, hating the grandson, claimed ignorance.

Yang Xiao and Xiao Qingliu returned to the Zhui Feng Inn.

"Qing Liu, what should we do, I killed Lei Tianmo's grandson, this could get tricky, maybe you should leave the Divine City, don't stay with me to avoid implicating you."

"If I leave, what about you?"

"Let's play it by ear, I can't escape. If I run, Lei Tianmo will surely take it out on my brothers in the Central Continent Empire,

Besides, I'll be appointed as a Divine Hall Elder tomorrow, and once I assume the position, Lei Tianmo may not dare to trouble me excessively, after all, it was his grandson who attacked me first, and also killed dozens of innocent civilians using poison."

Xiao Qingliu thinks for a moment and says:

"There's no avoiding this, the Divine City guards will trace it back to you eventually, and we have nowhere to hide. For now, let's continue as if nothing happened and see what happens after tomorrow. If luck is on our side, by tomorrow you'll be a Divine Hall Elder, and no matter how fierce Lei Tianmo is, he wouldn't dare kill an elder."

The night passes without incident, and the next morning after breakfast, General Zhuo arrives to take them to the Divine Hall.

On the way, General Zhuo complains:

"Sigh, Lei Tianmo's grandson was killed yesterday, and it's caused an uproar throughout the city. Our guard team was busy all night, searching for the murderer and it was exhausting."

"Oh, did you find the culprit?"

"No, not even one eyewitness, it's strange. Most people in the Divine City know this little Demon King, usually, no one dares provoke him. Who yesterday was so angry as to kill him outright?"

Yang Xiao says:

"Lei Tianmo's grandson is normally very arrogant, right?"

"Haha, more than just arrogant, he's utterly lawless, known as the little Demon King of the Divine City."
